[PATCH] Add smp_mb__after_clear_bit() to unlock_kiocb()
Add smp_mb__after_clear_bit() to unlock_kiocb() AIO's use of wait_on_bit_lock()/wake_up_bit() forgot to add a barrier between clearing its lock bit and calling wake_up_bit() so wake_up_bit()'s unlocked waitqueue_active() can race. This puts AIO's use in line with the others and the comment above wake_up_bit().
